Steam: Life and Suffering of Sir Brante Suzerain I Was a Teenage ExocolonistAnother FF8 threadBut this time I want to talk about industry trends and likely inspirations to speculate on the unexplained.
The most influential being the side scrolling game "R-Type" from the 80s and 90s. And really, where did the concept for the enemy "Bydo" originate from.SUIKODENWho did you pick for your final party in the Suikoden remasters?Digimon World 1What is the /vrpg/ consensus on Digimon World 1? Unpolished gem to me, a highly unique art style and immersive world with it biggest flaw being that the evolution mechanics are too hard to understand for the target demographic (6-10 yo boys) making the criticism of it being a Numemon simulator fair enough. Pokemon was easy to understand for the same target demographic and gave rightful way to more success but I want to talk about the uniqueness/magic of DW1 here. No other DW game and not even any Pokemon game has this kind of magical element that I can not describe properly. The worldbuilding art style is way more detailed/quirky/diverse/even raw than other DW games and Pokemons worldbuilding art style is very minimalistic (Pokemon has more diverse monster designs). What is the Digimon World that COULD HAVE BEEN, if only they cleaned up the evolution/shitting mechanics, to you?No titleWhy do people act like this isn't Bethesda's game with most roleplaying?

I haven't played any Elder Scrolls game since then. I remember hearing some tip that you don't actually want to make your most commonly used skills into major/minor skills, because they end up raising too fast and you get poor stat increases on level up. Where should I put the skills I actually want to use? I'm planning on playing a magic user by the way.

Weapon durability encourages you to keep spares, but you can't carry shit. Lack of descriptions encourages you to experiment, but you can't carry shit. Unique shop inventories encourages you to buy now rather than trek back, but guess what? You can't carry shit! You always need to drop things for key items, or to buy an upgrade item, a status healing item, or even just see what's in a chest. It was worse because I only had one human (1 Esper/Mutant, 1 Human, 2 Monsters) but it's a terrible system anyway.Black SoulsDRH in 2 more weeks.

I never played that modNo titleI feel like there should be more (j)RPGs I like, but there just aren't. I just want to play Final Fantasy 1 again forever, but different. I just want to make my all own party with different build options. No preset characters/drama queen storyline. I just want simplified "go do the thing" storytelling, no vainglorious writer living out his failed anime director dreams cranking out a novel with miles of dialogue boxes. I just want resource and equipment management and finding a small but meaningful amount of interesting treasure, no diablo style crap where every piece of gear is 30+ random dice rolls of marginal sidegrade.
There's like almost no games that really fit these requirements in my mind besides Final Fantasy 1, Final Fantasy 3(j), Dragon Quest 3, and the Etrian Odyssey series. Then there's Wizardry and Bard's Tale I guess, and I like the Ultima series though most of them lack much character creation.No titleWhat are some RPGs where you can marry and reproduce?SEQUELI';NNOCENT RULESWelcome to Ordowald the world that has nearly everythingBest order to play modern Persona games?With the leak/speculation/fake news about a new Persona 4 remaster, what's the best order to play 3-4-5 in their most modern versions for a newcomer? I'm interested to see answers from a gameplay mechanics perspective, as i've read that p3r builds upon p5r. Of course we know nothing about the potential p4(r) but I was thinking the current best order might be p4g-p5r-p3r?

this may actually be the funniest thing i've ever seen in an otherwise serious rpgNo titleAnyone know any good mods to put a flower in Shart's hair? I like this one but I don't want to make her wear the selunite circlet in act 3No titleI've gradually begun to realize that the kind of RPG experiences I enjoy are not the story-driven save-the-world long contiguous narratives, but the ones that let you roam around free and go on your own adventures. Now I don't necessarily mean purely "open world" games like the Elder Scrolls, but I suppose that's not too far off.
I think what really makes the difference is, in the classic older RPGs, there tends to be a hard limit of just how long you can stay out and about. Whether it's food, potions, reagents, spellcasts, games like the older Ultimas and Final Fantasies let you go out on an "adventure" but you eventually have to return to town, stock up, sleep at an inn, and maybe (as the player) power down for the night and have another adventure tomorrow. I'm replaying FF1 for the Nth time and it amazes me that it's actually a perfectly expected strategy to poke into a dungeon, grab a few chests, and run like hell because you aren't yet equipped enough to tackle the whole thing in one go.
It moderates grinding; some people hate grinding in all forms, I don't. But grinding gets boring in easier games, like later JRPGs, when you're just doing the same thing infinitely without risk and never have to really worry about running out of resources. It's that sense of packing everything into an "expedition" and having a home base around some town or village, and eventually moving on to find a new one, that I really enjoy. Later JRPGs tend to be more linear so as not to provide this experience, and TES games tend to be easy enough to just carry on without ever really needing to base/camp up somewhere unless you install some hardcore survivalist mods.
There's a fair amount of classic games to get into that provide this experience, but does this sub-genre even really exist in the modern era at all? While there are a lot of older game design ideas that don't really work anymore, I think this type of freeform, compartmentalized adventuring could still have appeal today.Underrail InfusionOne day into the year of the space snek and this shit happens.

I already know how the thing works, and I'm ready to make my first game. I want to name it Dark Triad, but there's this thing known as 'dark triad personality.' On one hand, it sounds pretty cool for the name of my game to mean a combination of three personality traits: narcissism, machiavellianism, and psychopathy, but on the other hand, I feel like people will get confused when trying to search up the game (I'll make it free, no worries.) So is it acceptable to name my rpg Dark Triad?The Witcher 1: Romancing Shani and not TrissI'm playing The Witcher 1 and in the second and third chapter I decided to romance Shani, instead of Triss, for Shani seems more caring with Geralt than Triss, that seems to be very libertine and fucking around just for personal gain. To not mention that she is just taking sexually advantage from him, due to his amnesia. Now she is mad at Geralt.

The pretentious five dollar words, lore dumps, awful dialogue... Maybe a decent game was hidden beneath all of that (With many different choices and paths...) but I just couldn't get into it.
It reeked of something written by a pretentious failed writer who thinks that his twitter posts have an impact on the society or something. I rarely drop games without finishing them but man, Tyranny is actually unplayable. The world and the setting just completely failed to pull me in. It's my fault for giving an Obsidian game a chance, honestly. I should know better.The Dark Eye / Realms of ArkaniaJust bought the collection along with Drakensang, what am I in for?Fear & HungerI finished Fear & Hunger 2: Termina with all characters on Masoχ-S/M. Here's my final character ranking based on objective gameplay factors. >S tier Max consistency, no exploits needed to win the game. >S- (exploit) tier The easiest way to beast the game on the hardest difficulty if you use "exploits". Whether something qualifies as an exploit or not is subjective but it's easy to see why they're relying on things that go from "kind of overpowered" to "outright [de]bug abuse". >A tier It's honest work, but it's consistent. >B tier Would put S to A characters here, if you picked suboptimal starting skills. >C tier You get at least one useful reliable thing from your character's start. >D tier You get nothing, you need to get lucky to survive, highest demand on player's action skill (dodging enemies, planning your route well, etc.).
The most obvious exploit right away is the debug tile that gives you a rifle + bolt cutters. You can, in example, empty the rifle into Chaugnar in Tunnel 7 for a free extra early soul -> possibly earlier Weaponcraft -> Meat Grinder. The Chaugnar fight is easy to fuck up even when you've got good gear. Then there are Rher dimension exploits >infinite food/small keys/money (and fast) from the neighbor near the Golden Gate in White Mold Apartments (accessible to anyone) >infinite bear/booba traps from the top left darkness corner in the Broken Shack Rher dimension, accessible from the ritual circle >extra Sylvan healing from Mayor's Manor ritual circle (requires entering the Rher dimension from Golden Gates) Finally, you can get infinite Gro-goroth affinity with Blood Sacrifice, so if you use that you don't need to draw a symbol. Not as huge as it might seem though, you only need one circle to max Gro-goroth affinity (I would recommend using it in the manor).No titleWould anyone be interested in a Canadian Fallout?No titleFirst time playing Chrono Trigger What to expect?No titleAny Arena defenders in the building?

They even added waypoints to teleport to in each region, which I haven't seen done in a world map before. RPG's usually give you a super fast flying transport to use at the late game instead.
I feel like this game really highlights that there is more than enough room for world maps to still shine in the modern gaming world. Having specific locations packed full with content and action, while you have world maps to admire and give scale. It just felt so soothing.
I hope more games can have world maps this good in the future.No titleWhen you have seen the loftiest heights and the most abyssal depths, what is there left for you?
ZakuAku might be my favorite game ever.No titleBros I had no idea that this was barely a RPG. Now I'm 10+ hours in and I'm learning I was supposed to have figured out on my own how timing and combos and inputs work. Most battles I win by spamming X and triangle while circle dodging and waiting for the big moves to cool down so I can spam them. It's boring and takes forever.
Can someone give me tips on playing this game because the game didn't tell me I was supposed to have already played half a dozen other games with the same mechanics to teach myself.
